Usage

Download the script that match your configuration

Tips

Download script with this url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/netvolt/LinuxRMM-Script/main/rmmagent-linux.sh

For Ubuntu systems try: 'wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/netvolt/LinuxRMM-Script/main/rmmagent-linux.sh' Make executable after downloading: 'sudo chmod +x rmmagent-linux.sh'

Fix Blank Screen for Ubuntu Workstations (Ubuntu 16+)

Ubuntu uses the wayland display manager instead of the regular x11 server. This causes MeshCentral to show a blank screen when trying to access the remote desktop feature. You can't login, view or control the client. There is a neat fix for this, so don't worry:

sudo sed -i '/WaylandEnable/s/^#//g' /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
sudo systemctl restart gdm

This will cause your screen to go blank for a second. You will be able to use remote desktop afterwards.

If you get an error like "file not found", you are probably still using Ubuntu 19 or below. On these machines, the config file will be located on /etc/gdm/custom.conf. Modify the command above accordingly. < Please note that remote desktop features are only installed when you used the workstation agent. You may need to reinstall your mesh agent.

To install agent launch the script with this arguement:

./rmmagent-linux.sh install 'System type' 'Mesh agent' 'API URL' 'Client ID' 'Site ID' 'Auth Key' 'Agent Type'

The compiling can be quite long, don't panic and wait few minutes... USE THE 'SINGLE QUOTES' IN ALL FIELDS!

Uninstall

To uninstall agent launch the script with this arguement:

Note: Single quotes must be around the Mesh ID for it to uninstall the mesh agent properly

The argument are:

  1. Mesh FQDN

Example of FQDN: mesh.fqdn.com

  1. Mesh ID

The ID given by mesh for installing new agent. Go to mesh.fqdn.com > Add agent > Linux / BSD (Uninstall) > Copy ONLY the last value with the single quotes. You are looking for a 64 charaters long value of random letter case, numbers, and special characters.

Example

./rmmagent-linux.sh uninstall mesh.fqdn.com 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'

WARNING

  • You should only attempt this if the agent removal feaure on TacticalRMM is not working.
  • Running uninstall will not remove the connections from the TacticalRMM and MeshCentral Dashboard. You will need to manually remove them. It only forcefully removes the agents from your linux box.
